Malaysia questions UN's will to reform

"Human rights .. should be applied without selectivity or discrimination. Why is that when we discriminate against gender it is called sexism; when African Americans are criticized and vilified, it is called racism; when the same is done to the Jews, people called it Anti-Semitism, and laws are legislated to prosecute the perpetrators. But why is it when Muslims are stigmatized and defamed, it is defended as "freedom of expression"?" - Anifah Aman, Malaysia's Foreign Minister, during the General Debate of the 67th Session of the UN General Assembly

Tun Dr M never minced words when he spoke up against the West's discrimination against Muslims at UN assemblies. Back then, we had Razali Ismail, the very able diplomat and Dr M's special envoy, to also say it as it is. Anifah Aman continues the Malaysian tradition of not being afraid to stand up against double-standards (and double-speak). Malaysians should be extremely (not moderately) proud.

Those community which thrive and manage to gain wealth and power with have the right to determine what they want. The Muslim maybe be one of the largest community in the world but they are plunged with poverty, ignorant, illiteracy and in fighting. This make them a noisy but relatively weak group who have no say in whatever policy of the world. The wealthest Arabs in the world are mainly dictators and oil tycoon who are mainly the Western allied or cronies. They put all their money mainly in the Western world rather than investing in their own countries. Worst, Muslim are good at in fighting, look at what happen in Syria, it is basically a war between Sunni and Shia with backing from their own various Arab countries which suppose to be brothers. So don't start blaming others if the Muslim can't even get their own house in order.

But why is it when Muslims are stigmatized and defamed, it is defended as "freedom of expression"?"_____________________________________sexism, anti-semitism did not bomb implode/explode buildings and cut-off heads of innocent people in the name of God. Where were these so called moderate or whatever Muslims when these things happened? Total silence = agreement!! Now you are crying foul play...duh. What goes around comes around.

Will Muslims also do their part? not resorting to kneejerk/blood thirsty violent reactions every time they think they are being offended. And also not to offend other beliefs with their kafir slur and terminology etc. to seriously respect that others have a right to their own beliefs and NO yours are not a superior belief???

Ah... if only these *moderates* would also dare to comment and are brave enough to show their displeasure at their more extremist bros. perhaps we would be in awe of this guy - berani tegoh org barat aje!! Load of BS!! Cakap tak seruba bikin.

Dear Jasper,Anifah spoke for those faiths, too. He's been consistent on the topic of extremists in all religions, not just in Islam. See my Sept 19 posting where I quoted Anifah as saying last year that "The real issue is not between Muslims and non-Muslims but between moderates and extremists in all religions".

yeah, can also stop ignoring death threats demanded by both the moderates and idiot extremist on those who left the religion. Its a subtle message when you don't do anything about it. Religion is a personal choice bila mau bole faham??

Anon 12:51 PM, thw West especially the USA purchase the black gold by paying nothing because they print the US dollar at no cost, use it to buy the oil and the best is the Arabs deposit the US dollar back to US and Jewish banks. So in actual fact, the money never leaves USA or the West and the West got free oil.
